I must be the odd-ball out here because i really really enjoyed this book!
As far as the grammar usage goes, the author (in my opinion) was trying to portray the characters with deep southern roots. Ie: using words like: dem (them) and dere (there). For me being born and raised in the south, this didnt bother me a bit and only made the characters seem more colorful and alive in my eyes.
On to my review: Riley Poe is one pretty kick-azz character. An ex-wild child, orphaned and now raising her 15 year old brother, Seth. Shes now 25 and owns the tatoo parlor, Inksomnia.
Riley's life changes dramatically when her brother dissapears, and she meets Eli and his Dupre family. They inform her that 2 very powerful vampires (Valerian and Victorian) have re-emerged and taken Seth to become part of their army. Other young teens are going missing in the city as well.
Riley teams up with the family and go to many underground places to hunt for the boys and their leader. But in the end, it is Riley and her special blood that can save herself and her brother from certain death.
All in all, i really enjoyed this book. I ate it up in just a few sittings. While Id wished the chapters were a little shorter, it didnt deter from the book at all. The ending was left open for a sequel, which Im eagerly awaiting.
